Hi,
I have finished the first version of my OS
Named Pocket OS, it is similar to DOS (single task, but allow smp)
If somebody is interrested to test it, it can be dowload at

I wanted to add it in OS project list but don't know how to do this.
Cheers,
Pierre

Nice OS
I tried it on my laptop, it works fine.
May you provide an English version of the keyboard map?
It is very hard to guess the position of the keys

It's a very interesting operating system you have. Very simple operating systems are always the best...
Keep up the good work!

Can I carry your OS in my pocket?
Programming is not about using a language to solve a problem, it's about using logic to find a solution !

yes, you need a 16 Mb pocket
How long have you worked on it?
a too long time
I have started it one year ago, and spent all my evenings and some nights
I have added shell documentation here
http://pierrel5.free.fr/PocketOS/shelldoc.htm
I tried it on my laptop, it works fine.
